The Alexandrite

Fired from a no-pay production of Hamlet, Jack Cade has no idea his next role will be opposite Marilyn Monroe—40 years back in time, in 1956. Through a dark, glitzy whirlwind of events, Jack meets Marilyn, gets killed more than once, and emerges with the jewel that changes his destiny. “It’s just about impossible to put down.” -Bret Easton Ellis
